Where can I go to find information about specific medications?

Where can I go to find information about the medication that my loved one is on?

You can talk with your doctor, or you may want to contact other knowledgeable professionals, including your local pharmacist, pharmaceutical companies, or reputable mental health care organizations (such as NAMI or NMHA). Pharmaceutical and mental health organization websites may also be a good resource. Also, at the Nathanson Family Resource Center, we have a number of books and binders regarding this subject: PEDI_PALS and LEXI-PALS Adult and Pediatric Patient Advisory Leaflet System, as well as other printed materials from the American Psychiatric Association.
